Itunes icon missing

After downloading the latest iTunes update, the icon is now missing from my computer.

As I've seen, this bug occurs after iTunes 10.6.3, including, where also appears a new "iTunes_Leopard.icns" on the iTunes.app/contents/resources folder. Previously, there was only "iTunes.icns" on there.
I suppose that if your system runs Leopard OS, then it uses "iTunes_Leopard.icns" for the app; and if it runs Lion or newer OS, it uses "iTunes.icns". Sadly, Snow Leopard stayed in the middle.
The bug raises on Snow Leopard, where it should use "iTunes_Leopard.icns" that would work properly; but instead, uses the newer version of the icon, "iTunes.icns".
As Apple hasn't fixed this bug, not yet on 10.7, I solved it myself by going to applications folder, then secondary click on iTunes.app, click on "Show Package Contents" and going to Contents/Resources. From there, I copied both "iTunes_leopard.icns" and "iTunes.icns" to a safe place, just in case.
Again, I copied "iTunes_Leopard.icns" to another place, like desktop, and I changed its name to "iTunes.icns".Then I moved it to Resources folder, where I had to autenticate as administrator, and accepted to replace the existing "iTunes.icns"… and Voilá! I hope it works for you too.
Thanks to ChinHao, who gave me some clues for solving this.

ITunes Icon Missing this morning!??!???!

Last night I spent hours copying/importing some cds to my Itunes. I also tried to install Quicktime, but I don't think it worked.
This morning the ITUNES icon is missing from my Desktop and I cannot find it in the recycle bin.????
If I go to Start / ITunes it says
"Itunes cannot run because some of the required files are missing. Please re-install Itunes"
Could all the music be in Quicktime?
It seems like the whole program got deleted but i didn't delete it so I am thinking it has to do with the installation of quictime.?
Ideas to find all that music?

Yep, that sounds like a broken QT.
Try installing QuickTime standalone, not regular

ITunes icon missing from settings list

All icons except iTunes is in settings list. It is in the dock. I am unable to buy books or apps without adding my credit card info. Have looked at numerous FAQ but haven 't found an answer.
Thank you

You use Settings > Store . If not already logged into your account on the iPad then log into it on the right-hand side, then tap your accoun id, 'View Apple ID' and then touch the apyment information line. You can also add payment details by logging into your account in iTunes on your computer.

Airplay Icon missing from iTunes 11.0.2.26 (PC) and Genius Sidebar

After upgrading to iTunes 11.0.2.26 my Airplay icon is missing. I've tried the simple fix that reportedly works where you switch to mini player, see the Airplay icon and then it stays when you switch to normal mode.
Firstly the icon does appear but it is grayed out and only pops up a volume control. It does not detect, display, or allow you to select output devices, Second, it is still missing from the normal size window.
This has been tried with and without restarting iTunes as well as reinstalling iTunes. I'd go for a downgrade but then it fails to work with the new iPads at all. I discovered that with my first iPad mini where it required an iTunes upgrade.
Genious Sidebar
I figured Id just downgrade to 10.6.3 to get the genius sidebar back afterwards. WRONG, it will not synch or do anything without the newer versions of the iTunes software. Genius sidebar was the best thing about the software and they kept taking it away, brought it back for a few versions, then took it away again. It was and remains my favorite way to shop for new music. The remaining so called genius functions are just plain lame.
Airplay Icon Missing from Itunes on PC
I can hit my Airplay devices such as Apple TV and Zeppelin Air with iPads, iPods, and iPhones. Just not from the PC Console where is previously enjoyed it the most. So I know the devices are fine. They are all on the same physical wired and wireless network. Even when I put the Zeppelin on the wired LAN there is no Airplay icon in iTunes on the PC.

ITunes-Icon on iPhone-6 is missing

The iTunes-Icon (2 music-notes in a white circle within a pink-purple square) is
missing on my iPhone. Maybe I've it inadvertently erased. I can't find it in the
app-store. Has anyone any idea how to get it back?
Thanks in advance.

Thank you, stedman1. As you probably know: I've meant "iTunes Store"-Icon.
When I lookup "Settings - General - Restrictions": they are "Off".
If I touch on "Off" all apps are shown in a shady way. If I activate "Restrictions", I'd
have to introduce a restriction-code. On the iPhone-6 of my wife the
restrictions are also set to "Off" and she's having the "iTunes Store"-Icon displayed.
I can get to the iTunes-Store by touching the "App Store"-Icon, search for
"iTunes Store", then I can visit the iTunes-Store. However that is
quite cumbersome and I'd rather have to "iTunes Store"-Icon as a
separate app.
Any other suggestions?

Missing iTunes Icon on iPad

After starting iTunes when connecting iPad to my MacBook, the iTunes icon on my iPad disappeared... I checked under General -> Restrictions, and iTunes was allowed to be ON. I resetted under General -> Reset -> Reset Home Screen Layout, but no changed happened and the iTunes icon is still missing... Can someone please help? Thanks!

Try a reset:
1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together)
2. For about 10 seconds
3. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)
4. Ignore the red slider

Icons missing for iTunes and App Store. Reset in settings, but they still do no reappear. Anyone know what cot do next? Thanks

Checked several pages of forum. Hope this is not a repeat question. Support info looks like you have to jump through multiple hoops to get app and iTunes icons to reappear on screen, if reset does not work. Anyone know an easier way? Thanks

Settings>General>Restrictions. If you have restrictions enabled, you may have disabled those apps.
You can also reset the home screen layout and the icon will reappear - but the home screen will return to the way that it looked when you first activated your iPad.
Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

All of the music from my itunes is missing. I do not have a Mac or PC, how do I get my music back?

all of the music from my itunes is missing. I do not have a Mac or PC, how do I get my music back?

If the music was purchased from iTunes and if you are in a country where music can be redownloaded and it's still available in the store, then you should be able to redownload it via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on your device, or turn on Settings > iTunes & App Store > Music (under the 'Show All' heading) 'on' on the device and it should then show in the Music app with a cloud icon against them for redownloading

Itunes icon on iphone is not displaying music button???plz help

i m using iphone 4 and i dont ve much knowledge about it..earlier the itunes icon on iphone had music icon but now a days its missing...plzzz help me out??

I just read that your iPhone is new, so no apps in your iTunes library have been transferred to your iPhone yet.
Under iTunes Applications Tab: the Sync Applications:is checked as well as all applications.THIS IS STILL NOT SYNCING AND THE TOP BOX WAS ALREADY CHECKED, IS THIS BECAUSE MY DAUGHTER ALREADY SYNCED ON HER iPHONE?
Not sure why you are typing in all caps with this, which on the internet means you are yelling or shouting, and I don't respond well to anyone who yells or shouts at me - not when I'm trying to help.
Your daughter transferring the apps in your iTunes library to her iPhone should not have any affect on this. There is no device limit for the number of iPods and/or iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library and iTunes account on the same computer.
Were all apps that are currently in your iTunes library purchased with the same iTunes account - with your iTunes account?

I have icons missing on OSX mavericks in Launchpad

hi guys,
how would i remedy this bug? in my context menu (open with) i am constantly seeing missing icons for apps and then in launchpad i have icons missing again, only the name appearing. if i click on them they do still open apps if i click on them but id like to see the blooming icons still!!!
this is ever since i updated OSX mavericks to the latest version. 10.9.1 i think.
please help or if u are experiencing it too lemme know if theres anything we can do!
i dont want to uninstall and then re-install these apps so that is not an option!
thanks all

If they were purchased from iTunes then connect the phone to your Mac's iTunes and the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases should copy them over. If they came from other sources (e.g. copied from CDs) then you will need a third-party program on your Mac to copy them back - there are some listed half-way down this page : Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
If by 'missing' you mean that you have them listed in the Music part of your iTunes library but get the 'would you like to locate' message when trying to play them then you will need to delete them from there for the Transfer Purchases to work - otherwise that will see those entries in your library and assume that you still have them somewhere and not copy them back.

I have several itunes icons

Hi,
I have several itunes icons on my computer and i am not sure why. I have 2 in my dock and one on my desktop along with an itunes.dmg icon. I have no idea how I did this and at this point i have no idea which to click to open itunes. Any idea on how i can clean this up and have all of the music on my conpute in 1 itunes automatically? Lately songs have been missing in tunes and they are still on my harddrive so i have to locate them in finder to put them back one by one.
Thanks Sara

I have 2 in my dock
Dock icons are just pointers to an application, so just pick one, make sure that clicking on it launches iTunes, and drag the other icon out of the Dock.
one on my desktop
It's probably the mounted disk image from the iTunes installer (see below). Click on it and choose the Eject command from Finder's File menu. If it disappears, that will confirm that it was a mounted disk image.
along with an itunes.dmg icon.
That's the disk image containing the iTunes installer. If you have iTunes successfully installed, you can trask that file if you wish, or save it in the event you ever need to reinstall iTunes.

Airplay icon missing using Remote app

I have an iphone 5, a 3th generation apple tv and an receiver Pionner Airplay compatible.
The apple tv plays streaming my music library stored on iTunes Match.
The songs are selected via the Remote app installed on my iPhone5.
While using Remote app, I can not send music from the ATV3 to the receiver Pioneer because the Airplay icon does not appear.
I also made these tests:
If I use the remote control of the ATV3 instead of the Remote app, I see and I select the Pioneer among the members Airplay compatible
If I use the Remote app to control iTunes server installed on a PC instead of ATV3, Airplay icon appears correctly and I see the Pioneer among the components Airplay compatible.
In conclusion:
Airplay functionality working correctly between ATV3 and receiver Pioneer only if I use the remote control of the ATV3, but does not work if I use the Remote app from the iPhone 5 (Airplay icon missing).
Any idea?

I've just bought an Apple TV yesterday and what a surprise to find this behavior as well. I use the remote app for everything about the Apple TV but swapping left and right to adjust the volume of the Airplay speakers doesn't work, so I need to use the physical remote only for that. Hope it's a bug that will be corrected. Doesn't make sense.

That message means that you have to restore the iOS software because something went wrong. Follow the instructions here. I hope that you have a backup.
